Shortly after this transition WithLoveDC, a movement to spread love, joy, and acceptance in the District, was born and she has been busy loving, flowing, connecting, teaching, and gathering in a sense of community since then. A teacher, artist, writer, yoga-lover, meditation-practitioner, and vegetable-enthusiast, Heather believes that a meaningful life is about connection and gratitude and sharing what we have.

Fati, the person possessing the world's most enchanting smile and the warmest heart hug

The way Fatima Gul describes herself is not meant to be cryptic, but it is rather a search for commonality among people. “I call myself nothing from nowhere because when we start telling people who we are and where we’re from, this is where all the conflicts arise. But everything is connected and in fact we are one.”

Fati Gul is an all-American coach who has found her authenticity through tumultuous yet rich experiences she had in her upbringing as a young leader in Sindhi Community. Guided by her authentic experiences of gratefulness even through difficult times, she now guides others in finding their own constant factor. The ‘constant factor’ is Fati’s philosophy of joy, spirituality and gratefulness – even full functional in the parts of your day-to-day life, which can seem chaotic and challenging. She believes that by discovering of your own potential, you have the chance to reach your own highest sphere of life. “I call it connecting with your higher self. It’s all within you,” she says. “All I have to do is be your companion on your life’s journey.”
